Diversity constraints on Public Housing Allocation in Singapore
The state of Singapore employs a unique large-scale public housing program, accounting for over 80 percent of its residential real-estate. In addition to providing a social benefit to its citizens and permanent residents in the form of subsidized housing, Singapore uses its housing allocation program to ensure ethnic diversity in its neighborhoods; however, limiting people's ability to freely choose apartments incurs some welfare loss. Our work studies this problem via the computational economics lens.
